He colaborated on many colorful window-down whole cars with high profile writers of the era including SHAME, SENTO, GHOST TKID 170 and others. MKAY counts CAP MPC and SHAME 125 amoung his stylistic influences. MKAY painted subways consistently for several years and closed his career between 1988 and '89.
